Let us verify each match step-by-step:

Step 1: Match for A
We need to find the slope of the tangent to the curve y=x3-2x at the point where x=2.
The slope of the tangent to a curve y=f(x) at any point is given by the derivative of y with respect to x, denoted as dydx.
Differentiating y=x3-2x with respect to x:
dydx=3x2-2
Now, we substitute x=2 into the derivative to find the slope at that point:
[dydx]x=2=3(2)2-2=3(4)-2=12-2=10
Thus, A matches with II.

Step 2: Match for B
We need to find the slope of the line passing through the points (0,2) and (5,-6).
The formula for the slope m of a line passing through two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is:
m=y2-y1x2-x1
Substituting the given coordinates (x1,y1)=(0,2) and (x2,y2)=(5,-6) into the formula:
m=-6-25-0=-85=-85
Thus, B matches with III.

Step 3: Match for C
We need to find the point on the curve y=4x-3 where the slope of the tangent is 23.
Let us find the derivative of the curve with respect to x:
dydx=ddx(4x-3)12=12(4x-3)-124=24x-3
We set this slope equal to 23:
24x-3=23
Dividing both sides by 2 gives:
14x-3=134x-3=3
Squaring both sides:
4x-3=94x=12x=3
Now, find the corresponding y-coordinate on the curve:
y=4(3)-3=12-3=9=3
So, the point is (3,3).
Thus, C matches with IV.

Step 4: Match for D
We need to find the slope of the normal to the curve y=x-2x-1 at x=10.
First, find the derivative dydx using the quotient rule:
dydx=(x-1)ddx(x-2)-(x-2)ddx(x-1)(x-1)2
dydx=(x-1)(1)-(x-2)(1)(x-1)2=x-1-x+2(x-1)2=1(x-1)2
At x=10, the slope of the tangent (mt) is:
mt=1(10-1)2=192=181
The slope of the normal (mn) is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the tangent:
mn=-1mt=-81
Thus, D matches with I.
